How does outlier affect mean median mode?
An outlier pulls the mean towards it. It does not affect the median and only affects the mode if the mode is itself the outlier.
What does the outlier affect the most out of mean median and mode?
The mean. Or the mode.
How do you determine how the outlier affects the mean median mode and range?
Calculate the mean, median, and range with the outlier, and then again without the outlier. Then find the difference. Mode will be unaffected by an outlier.
What is the outlier of the mean median and mode?
The median and mode cannot be outliers. For small samples a mode could be an outlier.
Between Mean Median and Mode which are affected most by an outlier?
The mean is affected the most by an outlier.
How does outlier affect mean median mode?
An outlier pulls the mean towards it. It does not affect the median and only affects the mode if the mode is itself the outlier.

How would the outlier affect the mean and median of the data?
An outlier will pull the mean and median towards itself. The extent to which the mean is affected will depend on the number of observations as well as the magnitude of the outlier. The median will change by a half-step.
How does the outlier affect the mean median mode and range?
The outlier is capable of affecting mean median mode and range it affects mean because the average has changed if affects median because you have to cross out 1 more letter it doesn't affect mode it does affect range because an outlier is a number that i far away from the other numbers * * * * * It does not affect the median.

Does the outlier affect the mean median and mode?
Yes, no, and no. The mean uses all numbers so it WILL be influenced by an outlier (sometimes heavily). The median is the middle number, so it can't be. The mode is the most frequent number, so it really can't be.
